چکیده
In this letter we implement a recently proposed spacetime duality approach to dualize a two dimensional, Abelian, gauge field theory, which has no dual version under p–duality. Our result suggests that spacetime duality spans a new, wider, class of dual theories, which cannot be related one to another by p–duality transformations.

Based on our work [1], we discuss how U-duality arises as an exact symmetry of M-theory from T-duality and 11D diffeomorphism invariance. A set of Weyl generators are shown to realize the Weyl group of SO(d, d,Z) and Ed(d)(Z), while Borel generators extend these finite groups into the full Tand U-duality groups. We discuss how the BPS states fall into various representations, and obtain duality...

We calculate by the method of dimensional regularization and derivative expansion the one-loop effective action for a Dirac fermion with a Lorentz-violating and PCT-odd kinetic term in the background of a gauge field. We show that this term induces a Chern-Simons modification to Maxwell theory. Some related issues are also discussed.

The D-3 brane is examined form the point of view of the wrapped M-theory five brane on a torus. In particular, the S-dual versions of the 3-brane are identified as coming from the different gauge choices of the auxiliary field that is introduced in the PST description of the five brane world volume theory.
